Willow ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

No Anathema - thread naming was specifically excluded when we put voting up for a vote.
If someone wants us to actually vote on thread naming, they'd have to propose a vote on that. But it was specifically excluded from the outset. This is a big-decisions process.
Ok, just wondered. I didn't remember that the ballot specifically mentioned that thread naming would not needed to be one of the issues voted upon.
Was anything else specifically excluded from voting? Sorry if I missed it, but just want to make sure I am up to speed.

Item 1: VOTING
A yes vote on this item signifies the voter agrees that we should create a voting system for community decisions that do not require immediate action.
Exemptions: Thread naming, disciplinary action against trolls (although the process itself could come up for a vote at some point) and tasks currently performed by Stompy Feet, including but not limited to board maintenance.
Thanks again.
Maybe the next B thread should be called:
Bureaucracy 2: Ask and you shall receive
Quick interjection -- "timelies" should be added to the FAQ, in the dialect section. Something like:
Q: Timelies? When?
A: "Timelies" is a multi-time-zone-friendly greeting for our poly-time-zone community. It evolved from "Good Morning/Day/Afternoon/Evening/Night!" into "Timely Greetings!" and eventually the simple "Timelies" you see being used on the board today.
Good one Jess. I've bookmarked and will add ASAP.
Lost in the voting kerfuffle has been the Mythology FAQ Lyra Jane compiled and I formatted. If everyone's happy with it, I'll excise the overlapping questions from the regular FAQ and set up links between the two.
And possibly also 'MWAH', since there was a question about that in Bitches this morning, and I have to admit I'm slightly unclear-- is there more than one version, or something?
I think MWAH is a kiss and Mwah-ha-ha-ha! is evil laughter.

"Mwah" is a big kiss. Say it out loud. "Mwah!"
Not to be confused with "Muahahahaha!" which is an evil laugh.

You need to put specific objects in your sentences, Am-Chau. I've no idea what you're talking about. t edit Oh! never mind
